[0033] The collision assembly includes a concave groove 15, which is made of high-strength alloy steel and integrally formed by precision casting. Its inner wall is finely ground. The concave groove 15 is fixedly connected to one end of the shift fork foot 11. A convex groove 16 is fixedly connected to the outside of the shift fork foot support 8. The shift fork foot support 8 is also made of high-strength alloy steel, and the convex groove 16 is precisely milled on its outside using CNC machining technology. The size of the convex groove 16 is strictly matched with the concave groove 15. The shift fork foot 11 is fixedly connected to the outside of the 5 / 7 shift fork 5.

[0034] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 The fixing component includes a piston connection 7, which is made of high-quality aluminum alloy and features light weight and high strength. The piston connection 7 is fixedly connected to one end of the shift fork foot 11. The piston connection 7 has a connecting rod 1 inside, and the surface of the connecting rod 1 is coated with a wear-resistant layer to enhance its wear resistance and corrosion resistance. One end of the connecting rod 1 is threaded with two nuts 6, which are located on both sides of the piston connection 7. By tightening the nuts 6, the connecting rod 1 can be firmly fixed to the piston connection 7. At the same time, the extension length of the connecting rod 1 can be precisely adjusted by adjusting the position of the nuts 6 to adapt to different specifications of shift fork feet 11 and test requirements. The other end of the connecting rod 1 is mounted on the rotating mechanism of the motor, similar to a rotating rod. When the rotating rod rotates, the connecting rod 1 rotates vertically around the first shift fork support 4.

[0035] Reference Figure 1 Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 A convex groove 16 is located inside the concave groove 15. A T-slot 13 is provided on the top of the plate 2. The plate 2, as the basic load-bearing component of the entire test fixture, is made of high-strength, high-rigidity steel plate, and its surface is processed by a surface grinder. The T-slot 13 can accommodate sliding components to ensure smooth sliding. The first fork support 4 and the second fork support 3 are slidably connected inside the T-slots 13 on both sides. The first fork support 4 and the second fork support 3 are also made of high-strength alloy steel, and their bottoms are designed with slider structures that match the T-slots 13. Bolts 12 are threadedly connected to the bottoms of the first fork support 4 and the second fork support 3. By tightening the bolts 12, the first fork support 4 and the second fork support 3 can be firmly fixed to the plate 2 to ensure that no displacement occurs during the test. The bolts 12 are threadedly connected inside the plate 2. The interior of each of the three components has a circular groove 14. The inner wall of the circular groove 14 is machined to have a smooth surface and precise dimensions. The circular groove 14 is located at the top of the first shift fork support 4 and the second shift fork support 3. An injection head 10 is rotatably connected inside the circular groove 14.
